Customer Reviews:
 An incredible amount of Chess fun and learning for under $20, 2008-09-30
The reviewer right below has stated it very well, so I won't bore anyone with too many details. This version of Chessmaster contains a true library of things to learn from various Masters of the game and is targeted at the Novice & Intermediate. The tutorials are done in a way that you don't have to be a strong Chess player to follow along. The puzzles, drills and game analysis are excellent ways to better understand the strategy & tactics behind winning Chess. My young daughter is finally wanting to learn Chess and I really appreciate how many areas of Chessmaster have been modified to apeal to children, while still not changing the other areas for us adult learners of this great game!
It's really amazing just how much quality content you get for under $20. If you like or love Chess or if you are just interested in learning how to play the game better, I'll bet you will have hours upon hours of fun with this program.
